I made this for my sonâs 21st birthday bonfire, which included a dozen buddies. The kraut topping flavors are fabulous. Ingredients:
6 bacon strips, chopped |
1 large onion, chopped |
1 medium apple, peeled and thinly sliced |
2 garlic cloves, minced |
1 can (14 ounces) sauerkraut, rinsed and well drained |
3 tablespoons spicy brown mustard |
1 tablespoon brown sugar |
12 uncooked johnsonville® original bratwurst |
1 bottle (12 ounces) dark beer |
12 hoagie buns, split |
Directions:
1. In a large skillet, cook bacon over medium heat until crisp, stirring occasionally. Remove with a slotted spoon; drain on paper towels.
2. Cook and stir onion in bacon drippings until softened. Reduce heat to medium-low; cook 15-20 minutes or until deep golden brown, stirring occasionally. Add apple and garlic; cook 2 minutes longer. Stir in sauerkraut, mustard, brown sugar and cooked bacon.
3. Transfer to a 13x9-in. disposable foil pan. Arrange bratwurst over top. Pour beer over bratwurst. Place pan on grill rack over medium heat; cook, covered, 30-35 minutes or until sausages are no longer pink. Remove pan from heat.
4. Remove bratwurst and return to grill. Grill, covered, 2-3 minutes on each side or until browned. Serve on buns with sauerkraut mixture. Yield: 12 servings.
